This summer, many girls (and guys) are taking a colorful route when it comes to their hair. Whether it be ombreing their hair, or coloring their whole head, we want to give this year a little more excitement.

This year, we're posting on the pastel colors. To some people, trends mean everything. If you're up to the latest trends, you would know that we want to go a different route this year.

Pastel pink, purple, and blue are going to be something you see very often this summer whether you want to or not.

Of course, there are always other solutions to dying your hair, if A. Your parents won't allow you to, or B. You don't want to go through the bleaching processes that could potentially damage your hair.

Usually, no matter what, the first time you do something, you make mistakes small or large, which you can't really help unless you have a lot of practice. I seriously recommend going to a professional the first time you go through any of these bleaching processes (unless your hair is naturally blonde or light brown) Bleaching your hair can completely kill your hair and damage it so bad that it ends up dead as a door nail.

Convincing your parents to let you dye your hair can be very hard. It may take a long time, but don't worry, unless your parents are really strict, with the right amount of persuasiveness I bet you can get them to let you do it. If they ultimately won't let you, there are always other alternatives such as hair chalk or waiting until you are older and out of the house.
